SOUTHCENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST ALASKA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ANCHORAGE AK
307 PM AKDT MON MAY 12 2014

.ANALYSIS AND UPPER LEVELS...

UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER SOUTHERN AK THIS AFTERNOON...WITH UPPER
LOWS SOUTH OF THE GULF AND SOUTH OF THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS. AN
UPPER TROUGH CURRENTLY OVER THE BERING STRAIT WILL BE A MAJOR
PLAYER OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. AT THE SURFACE...HIGH PRESSURE
RESIDES OVER MAINLAND AK WITH A WEAK THERMAL LOW SOUTH OF THE AK
RANGE...RESPONSIBLE FOR DRAWING THE MARINE LAYER INLAND THIS
MORNING. A STRONGER HIGH IS OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE BERING...
AND A FRONT IS CROSSING THE WESTERN ALEUTIANS...ASSOCIATED WITH A
SURFACE LOW WELL SOUTH OF SHEMYA. ANOTHER WEATHER FRONT IS MOVING
ACROSS THE NORTHERN BERING AND EASTERN RUSSIA AS IT APPROACHES THE
BERING STRAIT.

AFTERNOON HEATING IS EVAPORATING FOG THAT MOVED FROM COOK INLET
INTO THE SUSITNA VALLEY AS WELL AS COVERED THE WESTERN KENAI. FOG
HAS ALSO DISSIPATED OVER THE KUSKOKWIM DELTA.

&&

.MODEL DISCUSSION...

MODELS ARE IN A AGREEMENT THAT THE APPROACHING TROUGH/FRONT WILL
BRING DRIER AND WINDIER CONDITIONS TO THE FORECAST AREA OVER
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THE UPPER TROUGH/SURFACE FRONT WILL AFFECT
SOUTHWEST AK AS IT REACHES THE AK AND ALEUTIAN RANGES ON
TUE...THEN CROSSES THE SUSITNA VALLEY TUE NIGHT INTO WED...AND
THE COPPER RIVER BASIN ON WED. THESE PASSAGES WILL BE
CHARACTERIZED BY DRY AND WINDY CONDITIONS WITH THE FRONT...AND
EVEN DRIER BUT LESS WINDY CONDITIONS AFTER THE FRONT MOVES EAST OF
EACH AREA.

AS THE FRONT MIGRATES EAST...MODELS BRING THE EASTERN BERING HIGH
INLAND BY WED...WHICH THEN SPREADS ACROSS ALL OF MAINLAND AK
THROUGH THU WITH VERY DRY AIR.

FINALLY...THE FRONT FROM THE LOW SOUTH OF SHEMYA WILL PUSH INTO
THE WESTERN BERING BEGINNING TONIGHT AND REACH AS FAR EAST AS THE
PRIBILOFS TUE AFTERNOON BEFORE STALLING AGAINST THE RIDGE THROUGH
THU. BECAUSE OF MODEL SIMILARITY THE NAM WAS USED IN THE FORECAST
FOR DETAIL.

&&

.SHORT TERM FORECAST...

SOUTHCENTRAL ALASKA...

INTERIOR ZONES WILL REMAIN CLEAR AND DRY TONIGHT...WITH
INCREASING CLOUDS AND WIND ON TUE. AS THE FRONT MOVES EAST SOME
SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP AND MOVE EAST ALONG THE ALASKA RANGE...WITH
A FEW REACHING THE TALKEETNA MOUNTAINS. BY TUE NIGHT AND INTO
WED...SHOWERS WILL BE LIMITED TO THE ALASKA RANGE AND WRANGELL
MOUNTAINS WHERE THEY WILL END WED EVENING.

BEGINNING LATER ON TUE FIRE DANGER WILL INCREASE ACROSS THE
INTERIOR FORECAST ZONES AS LOW RH AND WIND WILL AFFECT THE AREAS.
WHILE THIS IS ALL HAPPENING...COASTAL LOCATIONS WILL HAVE ONE MORE
CHANCE AT SOME OVERNIGHT FOG TONIGHT...BEFORE OFFSHORE FLOW
DEVELOPS AND ELIMINATES STRATUS DEVELOPMENT.

SOUTHWEST ALASKA...

FOG WILL DISSIPATE AS THE FLOW BECOMES MORE OFFSHORE TONIGHT. ON
TUE THE FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA WITH WIND AND LOW
RH...ESPECIALLY OVER THE KUSKOKWIM VALLEY AND NORTHERN PORTIONS
OF THE BRISTOL BAY ZONE. AFTER FRONTAL PASSAGE THE WINDS WILL
SLOWLY DIMINISH...BUT LOW RH VALUES WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH
WEDNESDAY EVENING. WIND WILL DIMINISH AND RH WILL RECOVER WED
NIGHT INTO THU.

BERING SEA/ALEUTIANS...

STRONG WIND AND RAIN WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT AND WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THU ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE BERING AND
ALEUTIANS. LINGERING FOG OVER THE EASTERN HALF WILL PERSIST
THROUGH THE WEEK BENEATH THE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE.

&&

.LONG TERM FORECAST...

THE LONG TERM FORECAST IS CHARACTERIZED BY THE STRENGTHENING BLOCKED
PATTERN MID TO LATE THIS WEEK. HOWEVER BY LATE WEEKEND...MODELS SEEM
TO BE TRENDING TO A SIGNIFICANT PATTERN SHIFT FOR THE FORECAST
AREA. IN GENERAL TERMS...THE UPPER HIGH AND RIDGING THAT HAS BEEN
DOMINANT OVER THE SOUTHERN AK FOR QUITE SOME TIME WILL BE REPLACED
BY A STRONG UPPER TROUGH OR LOW DIGGING DOWN FROM THE HIGH ARCTIC
TOWARDS SW AK OR THE GULF OF AK. THE NET EFFECT WOULD BE
CONSIDERABLY INCREASED CLOUD COVER...WETTER CONDITIONS AND
DRAMATICALLY LOWER TEMPERATURES. THE OPERATIONAL ECMWF IS
PARTICULARLY ANOMALOUS WITH THE TEMPERATURE COOL DOWN. OUT
WEST...THE LONGWAVE TROUGH WHICH HAS BEEN FAIRLY PREDOMINANT LOOKS
TO TRANSITION TO SHARP UPPER-RIDGING. IN ESSENCE THIS WOULD
DIMINISH THE CHANCES FOR STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS OR FRONTS
FROM TRACKING THROUGH THE BERING SEA.
